The Code of Hammurabi
The law of “If a man hire a sailor, he shall pay him six gur of corn per year” is still relevant in modern times because we could use this law to apply to other people whose jobs were different from being a sailor. Nowadays, employers are legally obligated to pay their employees. This law remains relevant because employees receive what they deserve and employers do not take advantages of people’s work and time.
The law of “If anyone deliver silver, gold, or anything else to another for safe keeping, before a witness, but he deny it, he shall be brought before a judge, and all that he has denied he shall pay in full” is an irrelevant law in modern times because people no longer use that method to safe their stuff with other
